Born out of the collaboration between NOUSAKU, artists Anano (Mizoe Rei & Anahara Rie) and Needle craft specialist "Clover", a beautiful line up was created. This pin cushion is made out of 100% Tin. Its size and extensive decorations make it a cute, elegant object - and thanks to the design by industry specialists, it is easy in use.

Tin is the most expensive metal after gold and silver and is extremely malleable. Although its' appearance strongly resembles silver, it is not affected by air and does not easily rust. A great, long lasting item for hobbyists or as a Japanese inspired gift!

NOUSAKU began metal casting in Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture in 1916. During our early years, we created Buddhist altar fittings, tea ceremony accessories, and flower vases, later adding tableware, home accessories, lampshades, and other decorative items to our lineup. The fine appearance of our wind-bells, tableware, etc. is due to our heritage of advanced casting and refined finishing techniques handed down over a 400-year period. With the aid of modern machinery, industrial technology and the cultivated wisdom of past masters, NOUSAKU achieves outstanding harmony in its use of innovative design and top quality materials, and offers excellent value for money.
